Economic growth at the end of the 19th century was associated with the construction of the Hrechany - Zhmerinka-Podilska railway and the opening of the "Derazhnia" railway station in 1896 (the railway museum operates).
During the Second World War, there was a Jewish ghetto in Derazhnia, the entire Jewish and Gypsy population was shot. A monument was erected at the site of the mass shooting.
Few examples of old buildings are located along the central street of Myru.
Місто Деражня на річці Вовк розташоване в 40 кілометрах на південний схід від Хмельницького.
Вперше згадується в 1431 році. В 1614 році за польського короля Cигізмунда III міcтечко отримало Магдебурзьке пpаво. Перший дерев'яний костел в XVIII столітті збудував Антоній Любомирський. Далі господарі містечка неодноразово змінювалися. В першій половині XIX століття Деражня була одним з центрів повстанського руху під проводом Устима Каpмалюка.
В 1844 році Деражню купив Станіслав Раціборовський, нащадки якого стали останніми власниками містечка. Побудований при них кам'яний костел Святої Анни не зберігся - нинішній католицький храм відбудовано нещодавно на новому місці, де була цвинтарна каплиця.

Економічне зростання в кінці XIX століття пов'язане з прокладкою залізниці Гречани - Жмеринка-Подільська та відкриттям в 1896 році залізничної станції "Деражня" (працює музей залізниці).
Під час Другої світової війни в Деражні знаходилось єврейське гетто, було розстріляно все єврейське та циганське населення. На місці масового розстрілу встановлено пам'ятник.
Нечисленні зразки старої забудови розташовані вздовж центральної вулиці Миру.

Ratsiborovsky Manor
Palace / manor , Architecture
The former mansion of the Ratsiborovsky family in Derazhnia is now one of the buildings of the local hospital.
The estate in Derazhnia was founded at the end of the 18th century by the banker Petro Tepper, who greatly contributed to the economic development of the town. Near the center of the town, Tepper built a small palace surrounded by a park.
In 1844, Stanislav Ratsiborovsky became the owner of Derazhnia. His descendants reconstructed the palace in the Art Nouveau style in 1902.
In Soviet times, the building was rebuilt as a hospital, as a result of which it almost completely lost its historical appearance.
Saint Anna's Church
Temple
The modern church of Saint Anna in Derazhnia was built in 2000 on the site of the cemetery chapel, which in Soviet times served as the only Catholic church in the city.
The first wooden Catholic church in Derazhnia existed as early as the 17th century. In 1726, it was rebuilt (again from wood) at the expense of the owner of Derazhnia, Antoniy Lyubomyrskyi. In the 1840s, a new stone church was built on the initiative of one of the last owners of the town, Stanislav Ratsiborovskyi. Unfortunately, it was completely destroyed in the 1930s.
For a long time, local Catholics were forced to use a small chapel in the cemetery on the way out of the city in the direction of Khmelnytskyi for religious services. Today, a new majestic neo-Gothic church of Saint Anna with two pointed towers rises here.
